Rolex 116520 Daytona. First in-house movement in an all steel Daytona. Don’t care for ceramic bezels. More historically correct in my opinion and there can only be one First in-house movement.

I'm with Brian on this one, except for me it's the SubDate. It's the one that will always have my heart.

The latest WG Daytona!!!

Pretty sure AD will never give me one but that’s the allure of Rolex…..

I’ll settle with a regular YG or RG Daytona someday

Pretty much any Submariner/Sub Date with a GMT a close second.

I love the 136660 JC and if I thought it would work as a daily, it’d be the one

What is your favorite rolex?



16610, from the last year of production, with a fresh service, and I wish I knew the location of that black diamond bracelet .

I have pretty simple tastes, black Sub Date for me.

I would be torn between a NOS 16610 with holes case or the current 126610.

I just picked up my 126610 about 10 days ago and it's amazing, absolutely fantastic and keeping near perfect time so far (+4 seconds since pickup). My only hesitation about naming it my favorite Rolex is the potential for movement issues with the 32XX series movements. If I have no issues with mine or if they truly resolve the issue if it arises, then this is it for me. Absolutely love it and couldn't be happier.

Though I love the ones I have, and many others I’d like to own, a DD is still the ultimate goal for me. Has been since I saw my rich friend’s dads wearing them when I was a kid.

I sorta have say the 16750 is because it’s the watch that got me into it all and it was my fathers. I love it.

However my personal favorite is the 16600. It’s about perfect IMO. I miss having it. I am thinking about getting one out of the collection to get it back.

In an absolute sense, the Rolex Daytona 116519 with meteorite dial. It’s stunning in person.

Otherwise, love my 116500 black dial.

Tough question for sure. I guess it would have to be the one that turned me onto Rolex and “real” watches in general. Please see attached.
